Summit meeting of the blind

The newspaper dedicates a leading article to the FAO summit. "When a business, an institution or a government fails to achieve its goals, normally those in positions of responsibility are changed, managers are dismissed or fresh elections are held. In 1996 the FAO set itself the goal of lowering the number of people suffering from hunger, which then stood at 800 million. Today, in 2008, it stands at 850 million, and the food crisis is threatening to raise that figure by an additional 100 million soon. ... FAO Director-General Jacques Diouf's dialogue partners are manufacturers of genetically modified foodstuffs, seed traders and junk food producers. ... And yet the only viable solution is decentralised, democratic and cooperative biological and ecological agriculture. The real problem is industrialised agriculture and the evils it causes, like soil contamination. ... But in Rome such things will not even be mentioned."
